You probably don't need to install the K3 Utility.  Just copy the .exe file
into a folder on your CD and execute it from there, or copy it from your CD
into a temporary folder on the host's computer and execute it from there.

Try this all at home first!

The K3 Utility will write into the registry - it saves its settings in
HKEY_CURRENT_USERS\Software\Elecraft\K3 Utility.  You may want to "clean up"
your host's computer by removing that registry value after you're all done.

Would it be possible to start with one of the "live" CD Linux distributions,
add
the K3 Utility and a folder/directory with the firmware files, then either
re-burn it all to a new, bootable CD, or (depending on the distribution) a
thumb
drive?

That way, it wouldn't matter what was on the PC - as long as it could boot
from
a CD or USB, you'd be set.
